Sunlight plays across and through the
softness of her pure white down.
She teases each one
into place.
Maybe she has babies there
nestled in. She pets
protects and covers them
with her love.
Serene inside the
comfort of her being
Heaven’s water music plays
as she glides
creating ripple effect
across the water
in touching triumph
of her spirit
without even being
aware
She feeds my soul.

Nature does that for me too. I went to the water around midnight this week, just to hear the waves weep, they feed my soul 🙂 nice piece as always!
So sweet…I enjoyed this very much. A tranquil break in a busy day…
she feeds my soul…
makes me think of my children. I also feel like this when I watch the birds that fly over and swim on a nearby lake… and when I watch my horses in the pasture. Beautiful work.
This sounds so lovely~ How special it must have been to stay with you like this. 🙂
I can tell … you are a mum … Love you, Bren …
Awesome imagery here. Love it. And the lines at the end,without even being
aware
She feeds my soul. outstanding. Great read. Thanks
I love that last line, she feeds my soul. This is beautiful, as always. = )
Was this something you saw with your own eyes? If so, how lucky you are! Such a peaceful scene that must have been, to stay with you.
Love the serenity…a moment of peace in my day.

Damn…that was a little fprayer for a Monday afternoon. Soft and gentle with a tone that could lull a crying baby to sleep. Great writing.
so often this is true, so often. Beautiful!
serene, soothing and very beautiful.
Those last lines are so lovely!
I love the imagery you’ve created with the ripple effect and how the ripple affects you here:
“without even being
aware
She feeds my soul.”
Such a deep and beautiful poem, Daydreamertoo!
wow she feeds mine as well through your words…so much serentiy in watching her care…and the gentle ripples that flow from it…smiles.
without even being
aware
She feeds my soul.
this is also the effect your poetry- rippling, peaceful, serene- has on me… thank you!
Oh so lovely. You have captured a swan’s grace perfectly. I so love those beautiful creatures.
Is there better food for the soul than the sight of a serene creature, like this swan. Lovely work.
Lovely and serene. I like the image of motherhood and nurturing, nature and us.
Just never know what one can see when they look, as others unaware feed you at your lair. Hope it filled you up too!
This is a beautiful capture of the way nature woos us, unfolds our being, and makes us feel one with its energy while wrapped in its arms.
My favorite words are “water music” and “She teases each one into place.” And she doesn’t even know the effect she’s having on you. Lovely piece.
Swans are beautiful graceful creatures. Your poem expresses the beauty of their grace.
This poem is as beautiful as the swans that inspired it.
Reverie comes to mind… lovely piece.
I like your serene words this Monday morning ~
Happy day to you~
